I've been intrigued with tablets lately since (finally) getting a smart phone.... Been researching and talking with others and saw this thinking its a pretty good price on a 10" tablet... https://www.costco.com/.product.1003037 ... 7_AprilMVMI'm not to the point where I 'need' a tablet yet, just 'want' and this looks like it would be a good starter tablet at a good price.

If you don't like it, can return it within 90 days to any Costco store for a full refund.

I see that tablet every time I walk in Costco. It is really getting to me. The price is good and it's almost as big as a laptop - that could be a downside though. But the price is good.

Yeah - I've been holding out since I've got it in my mind that a laptop would be better, and I've been waiting to find a 'killer' package in the $400-500 range... but after playing with the smart phone, I've realized that for 90+% of the things I would do with it, a tablet like this (10") would be more than adequate... The smaller ones.... ehhhh, just a big phone - not that much upside to what I've already got.
If anyone is looking, Verizon is having a special on the Galaxy J7 phone --- $5/month for 24 = $120. I'm running the J3 and it seems to do everyting I need or want, but the specs on the J7 are really pretty good - reviews on the J3 said 'its a great budget priced phone' and that price on the J7 is less than what they sell the J3 for. If ATT were to offer up the J7, I think I'd be all over it. I can't justify the costs of the flagship phones right now.... I'd rather put that money into a laptop.... I doubt I would use all/most of the capabilities of a $400+ phone, but I would like a better camera...

Both my daughter and I have them and they are fine if you need a tablet. One item. Make sure you can get a case for it. Several of the Samsung's have been a real drag getting a cover for. I bought mine at Costco at Christmas time and it came with a case.

I bought one of these on Black Friday, this past November. Paid about that - $195, if I remember correctly. The screen resolution is exceptional, especially for my tired old eyes. I also sprang for a nice case from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01FVLU5GQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1This thing is durable and solidly made, IMO. No complaints of any kind, here. Both the tab and its case are working nicely for me.
